Just found one (I had missed it when I sent my previous e-mail): http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ReCAPTCHA, nowadays merged into http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit (which is not ConfirmAccount). ConfirmEdit can be configured to only present captchas to non-logged-in users, when they try to edit or create a page, or create an account. Might that be useful? Or we could go old-school copy protection style: "What is the fifth word on page 120 of the TeXbook?" :-P If we want to have a slightly higher barrier of entry: "Name one undocumented command that you recently heard about on the mailing list." ;-) Cheers, Sietse ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
